BECOME an Art Fraud Detective



Art Fraud Detective is a great way to introduce ART in a FUN way. We use this book once a week as part of our school and Ryan loves it. It is just like an I Spy book, but with famous paintings. There is a group of forgers that broke into the museum and stole all but 4 of the art pieces and replaced them with forgeries.
Your job is to compare the original painting with the ones in the museum to find which paintings have been stolen. There are 16 forgers each belonging to 1 of the 4 gangs. By locating the hidden symbol and counting the changes, it is possible to identify the forger who made each fake. I made up a chart that you can print out to use with this book. Happy Hunting!
